[Show Review]- A Magical Theatrical Experience At Cavalia

Conceived by Normand Latourelle, one of the co-founders of famed Cirque du Soleil, Cavalia is a fresh mix of equestrian and performing arts, multimedia and special effects, innovatively integrating acrobatics, dance, aerial stunts and live music.

The show, often labelled as an equestrian ballet, combines advanced technology and the fundamental relationship that humans have developed with horses throughout time; enabling us to build bridges between cultures, to expand civilization and now to produce the purest form of art, one created through kindness, patience, and love. A show unlike any other, Cavalia celebrates the relationship between humans and horses, virtually reinventing the equestrian arts.

Enjoyed by more than four million spectators across the world, Cavalia is a harmonious celebration of beauty and nature encompassing imagery that whisks the spectator’s imagination around the earth over land and sea by displaying a vast array of equestrian and performing arts. Supported by state-of-the-art multimedia, Cavalia is an epic adventure, a fantastic demonstration of horsemanship that transports the audience into virtual environments.

The horses cavort with the many artists in front of a constantly changing digital background projected onto a 60 metre-wide screen. Each image projected on the immense cyclorama is first hand-painted and then finalised by graphic designers. To project these breathtaking backdrops, Cavalia uses 20 projectors as powerful as those illuminating the grandest movie theaters. This method of set design is unique to Cavalia and allows the audience to be immersed into dream-like environments.

Our Personal Review of Cavalia

Cavalia offers audiences a really unique one-of-a-kind theatrical experience that is truly magical and breath-taking. The death defying stunts performed by the professional team of acrobats will send audiences going "oohh and ahhh" and children will be so fascinated by the free-roaming horses. Furthermore, the live music that accompanies the show definitely keeps audiences in suspense!

Just in case you're wondering, the White Theatre Tent is air-conditioned but do dress comfortably as the show is 2 hours long [inclusive of a 30-minute intermission].

Presented under its signature White Theatre Tent at Bayfront Avenue, beside the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Cavalia will only be here for a limited time till 14 September 2014, Sunday, and you really shouldn't miss this spectacular show!
